After I posted this fun retro floral design as a Midday Muse, CasaSugar reader Studio524 took the inspiration and ran with it — straight to her canvas and paints.
As she explains in the Su Casa group, she and her husband have been working on their living room, and "I was stuck for a piece of artwork that would work above the sofa." Here's a collage of her living room, which is delightful despite being a work in progress:

I love your orange ottoman!
1Love the coffee table.
2I like the ottoman and the mural. But don't you think the other side of the wall is too bare?
3Wow, that painting is gorgeous!
Oh how I long to be at all artistic...
4Wow this is beauteous! That credenza is badass.
5Wow! I love the color of your walls. It ties everything together so well! Great job
6Vienvien: The bare wall is where she wants to put the painting!
7Love the color palette. You have some great pieces too. Kudos for getting inspired and making your creativity happen!
8I love your hardwood floors...I want! The orange ottoman is great and I think this artwork will compliment the room.

24Thanks to you all for the wonderful comments and to Casa for this wonderful feature. I promise to post updated pics ASAP - next week sometime. As you know - the progress is slow going but progress has been made. Lots of progress has been made.
OOOH I love the mural. It's gorgeous and really works with your living room.
25This room is very cohesive. I can tell much thought went into the design. The painting will look great on the wall. Good job!
